Quitters never win

Hello friends, countrymen;
Hello to the intellectual higher-archy.
(I'm of the lower-archy class).

I had last posted a few months ago, and said that I'd play my board game 100 times before I give it up.   Well folks, I believe I accomplished that task, but I feel my chess game is still horrible.

Every time I look at a newly started game, where I am one of the opponents, I ask myself "Why?" and "What's the point?"

I, Chimbok, hereby resign, with the statement that I enjoyed my rather brief stay but enormous challenges at chess.com.

I will continue to play my board game once in a while, and that's it.

My visits here will continue only to read these posts, as I try to relate to the various difficulties which some of you express.

OK, play on, and I'll find something to do.

chess is not for everyone and it might not be for u but i can say if your loseing alot is because your playing to win. I'm not saying play to lose but play to have fun that all. I sink at chess but I don't stop playing why because I have fun that why win or lose it fun for me. Two reson why it fun for me. one im spending time with a friend or family two you get to know new people. Im not saying you going to be best pal but u never know when you might need that peson help. for ex i have made lots of cops friends and when im speeding (i only speed when i late for work which is 1 or 2 times every 8 months and I still should not speed. ) and one of them stop me they don't get me a fine. I also made friends with doctors, firefighters and so on and so on so don't stop playing keep playing you never know who u might meet. When u meets some one like a cop or doctor or even a person that just works in a gas-station that when u really start to win.

Chess is played as a sport. In soccer, do you play to win? I'd play to have fun instead. Now, I bring that indoors for CHESS.
